September Secret Pal Sign Up Closed
#3262
Thanks, Faye. Kim, I don't know, but hopefully I will remember to check their site in a month to see if they took photos. I have lots of diplomats and politicians who buy my veils to wear to the Vatican, but never thought to ask for a photo. Have also had them worn on TV. Too busy to ask for pix. Most recently Women's Wear Daily wanted to feature them in their summer wedding issue. I was tempted, but then decided not to since I don't do wholesale at this point and certainly didn't need anyone ripping off my designs. Each one comes with a handmade pouch, holy card and sachet of lavender and Victorian rose buds (Arizonagirl got one of those). The equestrian folks got pouches made of faux leather. I don't advertise the extras so when they get them, they're thrilled even though they usually have to wait while I take my sweet time sewing them. BUT ... they come back and they send their friends and also send thank you notes that it was worth the wait.
Now you know a little more about my "accidental" business!

There have been some questions as to if we are having a Dec Secret Pal Swap and the answer is yes. I know that people are busy that time of the year and will probably mean fewer swappers signing up, but hope we are all back in January
